Leukemoid blood response and bone infarcts in a dog with renal tubular adenocarcinoma.
Neutrophilic leukocytosis (136,800 WBC/microliters) and multiple bone infarcts were detected in a dog with renal tubular adenocarcinoma. The causes of the leukocytosis and bone infarcts were not determined, but these syndromes appear to be uncommon manifestations of cancer in animal and human patients.
